Right now as I hear Nixon, Schilling, Millar, Wells, etc line up and take thier shots at A-Rod... all I am thinking is... I couldnt agree more.
But honestly, do they really need to spell it out that A-Rod hasnt earned his pinstripes yet, and Jeter is the face of the Yankees? Do they really think no one else knows that?
They are the World Champions meaning they've earned their right to be confident going into the season. I don't think it gives them the right to take shots at their opponents before anything has even started. I have no problen with smack talking, but some of the things they've said like Nixon calling A-Rod a clown, and Millar saying that A-Rod's salary doesn't qualify him to be a Yankee.
Why is another team worrying so much about whose a Yankee and who isnt? Shouldnt they have more important things to do like prepare for the season, not sit around and evaluating each Yankee's status as a true Yankee?
Really, if they want to be showing hate for the Yankees, at least they should be saying things that they have a right to speak about, like A-Rod's joke of a slap at Arroyo.
Other than that, they should keep their mouths shut, and stop talking about "Whose a Yankee" and who isn't.
I mean... all along it wa said that the only way to get out of the Yankees shadow was for them to win the WS. Now that they have, their just making themselves seem desperate by taking shots at the Yankees about things they shouldnt even concern themselves with. Leave the "true Yankee" talk to the NY media, not the Red Sox clubhouse.
